I did just get a pair but these are my first Brookesia. From what I've read, the B. stumpffi might be easier to care for but I like the appearance of B. superciliaris a bit more so went with them. I just reread that AdCham article for the first time since purchasing the pair and have been thinking the same thing mentioned there: they are shy and much more active than I expected. They also climb more than I expected. I set them up in a good sized Exo Terra with a lot of leaf litter, bamboo, and live plants of several varieties. I softly handmist 3-4 times per day. Basically, I looked at their distribution and decided I need to make the cage and care replicate the wild areas where the parsonii turds fall.
So far my little pair seems to be doing well, eating and drinking. It sure looks like I could have a couple eggs soon, too.

Just finished up the tank. I'll be picking mine up next week end. Here's some snap shoots.
